Robert: All I can offer is my experience with a BJ8 system that had had the resonators removed by the previous owner. The pipes went straight back on the left hand side. Great sound on acceleration a

A mild steel exhaust system rusts from the inside to the outside. They are attacked by the acids and water that is produced during the combustion process. External corrosion hardly ever leads to fail
